IFETAYO DANCING CENTER DESIGN CONCEPTS

IFETAYO FAMILY

This project is a design proposal for the Ifetayo Cultural Arts Academy lcoated in Brooklyn, New York City. The essential concept of the space is the word “family”, which is one of the main atmospheres in Ifetayo Academy. The idea of fabric is applied in the project to achieve the atmosphere of a warm and cozy home. Besides, to represent the diversity of African culture, each space is identified with different kinds of fabric. The overall concept of this method is to show that even though people in Ifetayo are from different culture background, but they are still a tight and warm family union.

FAMILY Ifetayo Family Ifetayo Cultural Arts Academy empowers youth and families of African descent to achieve high levels of educational, professional and artistic excellence. As a leading Brooklyn based institution, we inspire future generations to develop a strong Africancentered cultural identity and realize their power to transform social inequity.

Ifetayo offers African-centered, multi-disciplinary arts & cultural education, and wrap-around supports for the whole family. Many of our classes and workshops are free or priced affordably to ensure access for all. -- https://ifetayo.org/

M' BONGI SPACE

WORK SPACE

Intertwine

Tie-dye

The color of the tie dye cloth will bring a chill and release vibe to the space, and it will provide a willing motivation for people to work here.

M' Bongi is a space to let people feel warm, welcoming, and willing to communicate with others as soon as they enter the Ifetayo center. The space contains a greeting area, a gathering area, and a small kitchen.

Tie-dye Partition Tie dye cloth works as a partition to seperate the public and private space in work area.

Ceiling Treatment

Twining fabric can fully represent the strong connection among people in Ifetayo, wrapping each thread, indicates that everyone is embraced by the Ifetayo family.

Large tie dye fabrics are placed as ceiling treatment, to add aesthetic view and also conceal the lighting on the ceiling, some pendent lightings are interspersed in the cloth.

Atmosphere Unity

Embrace

An exciting and warm atmosphere is generated in the space, by interacting with a lot of playful installations. By doing so, the space is more like a park, full of activities, energy, communications, etc. Toshiko Horiuchi

The dance studio is a place with no limitation, students can enjoy freedom of their movement and mood. The pattern can indicate the dynametic of the space, and also as a navigation.

The entire space is going to be waved and fluent, representing the movement of dancing performance. The shelf in the studio can be also regarded as a piece of pattern.

Instead of feeling like a traditional school, being restricted by disciplines, the classroom in Ifetayo is more like a home schooling, children can decide wherever they want to sit, stand, or lay down during class.

The classroom is a place to show the unique teaching method and the infinite creativity of students. Different color shows the diversity of students coming from different culture, and creates the movitation for them to think creatively.

SCHEMETIC PLAN

SECTION SKETCH Farm area in the courtyard

In the courtyard, people can grow their own plants and vegetables, and make the dishes in some special events.

Rest area in the courtyard

Different heights of weaves fits differents needs of people, to experience various scales of weaves. The weave can also be a net to embrave people.

Considering the weather condition in New York City, instead of applying actual fabric products in the courtyard to show the weave concept, aluminum strips are placed to mimic the form of weave.

CUSTOMIZE FURNITURE SYSTEM

MOOD BOARD

KNOT FURNITURE SYSTEM - CLASSROOM (QTY=10+)

PATTERN STORAGE SYSTEM - DANCE STUDIO (QTY=1)

FLEXIBLE + CREATIVITY + COOPERATION

PATTERN + STORAGE + SEATING

This knot system is a multi-functional furniture system, students can foam it by knotting, and make it suitable for any positions they want, which brings a free and close atmosphere during class.

Also the procedure of knotting the furniture requires students' creativity, to bring their interesting thoughts into the reality, and requires their cooperation, both of them are vital values of Ifetayo Family.

This system is multi-functional including storage and seating. The entire shelf can be regarded as a piece of pattern art, and the upper level is solid because the height is not very convenient for children.

The lower level works as a storage. And the bottom part is a step system for children to climb, also as a seating for them to rest. The wavy shape of the step also shows the fluency idea of the dance studio.
